SOL to USD

The SOL/USD rate is the price buyers and sellers agree on at a given moment. Different exchanges can show slightly different prices. See how much $1 of Solana buys.

Storing and using SOL

Keep SOL in a self-custodial wallet such as Phantom or Solflare, or on an exchange. Use it to pay fees, stake, trade or create tokens. If you want to build on Solana, the Solana token creator deploys a token in one signed transaction, and creators can enter the $100 creator giveaway (a promotional draw; no prize is guaranteed).
